Purpose:
The aim of the study is to improve operative speed and precision of haemangiomas excision.
Case-Report:
haemangioma is a common affection of the 8% of the population during the neonatal period. In complicated cases and involution sequelae surgical treatment is the first choice. The Authors propose a surgical refinement to prevent intraoperative bleeding.
Methods:
several suture stitches were placed around the hemangioma. The edges of the lesion became more defined, thus allowing accurate excision.
Results And Conclusions:
Haemangiomas are characterized by rich blood supply. Surgery is often hindered by massive bleeding and Temporary placement of full-thickness sutures, surrounding the hemangioma, allowed a noticeable improvement in hemostasis precision and greater definition of the margins of the hemangioma.
